The article is an attempt at the reconstruction of the original (Baroque) architectural forms of Domicilium Varsoviense, founded in 1721 by the Bishop the Warmia and future Primate Teodor Potocki for Crown Jesuits. What strikes is the church’s ‘palace-like’ character. The spatial arrangement of the chapel, peculiarly echoing the archetype of the Jerusalem Temple, initiated a whole series of similar ‘ambulatory’ arrangements, implemented, e.g., for the Warsaw Knights Hospitallers (1726); the Drohiczyn Benedictine Nuns (1733); the Krześlin Dominican Church (1736); yet most notably in the famous Kobyłka church n. Warsaw (1740) raised by the Załuski brothers who after the death of the great Primate, were patrons of the Jesuit Domicilium Varsoviense. The stylistic analysis, as well as written sources, allow to attribute the Jesuit building complex to the architect Carlo Antonio Bai (1678-1740), frequently employed by Teodor Potocki for his artistic foundations in Warmia, Warsaw, and Łowicz.
